That's why I'd never rely on them. You can only ever rely on yourself.

I'm ok as I have my own setup at home.
But since spotless came to leeds i used the  m as easier to just pull up and fill.
So had to start producing which obviously lost me a days work as they never said anything.
Plus i have money on the account.
You from leeds?
Cheers

Still amazes me there’s so many using Spotless for their water supply.

Other than people living in flats and people travelling to jobs out of their own area, I can’t think of another reason not to purify your own water.

I would never want to rely on some 3 rd party for something as basic as water , it’s all to easy to be let down and unable to do a days work

One thing I always do is make sure my IBC has a few days worth of water in it just in case the water board come round and turn the water off for repairs etc.

My advice is if you’ve got the space to produce your own pure, do it. Don’t rely on others as they will let you down one day. A couple of lost days is equal to buying your own RO and never be in a position of reliance.

If you can buy cheaply enough (ie not from Spotless ;D) then buying saves you time and hassle, if you put a price on your time it's worth paying 2p a litre, but not the 3 plus vat that Spotless charge

If you live in a hard water area it's definitely worth it, our local ppm is 350-400 so membranes take quite a hit down here in Kent

Or have more than one option, I would recommend that

I manufacture water at a unit in Margate, we're called H2Go and I use it on my own work so we never run out or I'd be stuffed  ;D
